Acap2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables phosphatidylinositol-3,5-bisphosphate binding activity and small GTPase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to nerve growth factor stimulus and endocytic recycling. Predicted to act upstream of or within actin filament-based process. Predicted to be located in ruffle. Predicted to be active in endosome membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; brain; genitourinary system; liver; and spleen. Orthologous to human ACAP2 (ArfGAP with coiled-coil, ankyrin repeat and PH domains 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Acap2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
